I've actually been thinking about creating a website exactly like what you're looking for. Would there be interest in this?

But I also thought about forums. a place where we can discuss production tricks and hints. Where we can discuss new (and old) software from a musician's point of view.

 
Yep, sounds like we're on the same track.

Or maybe unite the efforts? I was thinking on doing it on Drupal 6. I have a basic knowledge in that. What CMS were you thinking to use?

D6 is what I was going to use.

Setting this up in Drupal would be such a cinch, I think I might in the next few days just get the basic stuff working, put it on a subdomain on my hosting package and then if there's interest, I'll go and properly theme it all, etc.

Viktor, if I get it up I'll give you an admin account if you want as we seem to be on the same track.

Now, I can't find, don't know of any website that does all this yet. There's some old list-type sites, but nothing really user-driven and dynamic that has potential for forming a community. I think that's for one of two reasons:
1) Nobody's done it yet.
2) one or more sites like this DOES exist, but there really isn't an interest, hence why I can't find it.

Either way I think the only way to find out if there's interest is to actually set one up. For the small amount of effort it would take to do this in Drupal I think it's worth the risk.

And hey, I'm pretty interested in it, maybe it follows that many others probably are as well.
